Julian Walker (22) was just your average Hattiesburg, Mississippi college student when he attended an open call audition for a feature film shooting locally. Although he had no prior acting experience, Mr. Walker's untapped, natural talent caught the eye of writer-director Patrik-Ian Polk (Punks, Noah's Arc, The Skinny) and he landed the lead role of Randy Rousseau in the Mississippi-set coming-of-age drama "Blackbird" co-staring Oscar-winner Mo'Nique and veteran actor Isaiah Washington. 2016 has become an exciting year for Julian, with appearances on Bounce TV's hit series Saints & Sinners as youth choir member Taj & the new season of BET's hits series Being Mary Jane as the talented, hip, always "in the know" employee "Ty"; set to air January 2017. He is the recipient of the 2016 Humanitarian Award of Television & Film at the Visions Community Foundations award ceremony, for his hard work within the community. You can also catch him on the Spring 2016 cover of Kontrol HOMME Magazine.
